That's the only point were I strictly disagree with you. *buntu and
Debian mailing lists were spammed with support request regarding Mint
in the past.

This one is from yesterday:

Mint is No.1 for inexperienced users, that care about flashy themes and
an out of the box everything is working install, by misunderstanding it
with "no need for self-responsibility". One update later after they
installed it, they will spam Debian user and *buntu mailing lists with
grotesque requests.
